I Will Yet Go Forward!

"I must venture: to go back is nothing but death; to go forward is fear of death, and life everlasting beyond it! I will yet go forward!"—Christian in John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress

Here's my favorite -

". . . is the celestial glory of so little esteem with him, that he counteth it not worth running the hazard of a few difficulties to obtain it?"
(Goodwill to Christian, John Bunyan, Pilgrim's Progress, Part 1, 2nd Stage)

Blessings!

My eyes almost always water at the point in Pilgrim's Progress when Christian is pinned by Apolyon and just before reaching out for his sword he cries Micah 7:8

"Do not rejoice over me, O my enemy. Though I fall I will rise; Though I dwell in darkness, the LORD is a light for me."

As Martin Luther wrote "The body they may kill, God's truth abideth still".

Amen!
